Bob, most of these are for resale...they priced them so low I can do 2X+ on Ebay...

Swimmer, the cheapest tie in the lot is $145 retail...the Kiton's are 200+

With tax it's over a grand, for 5...count 'em five freaking neck ties.

A good point...

I've shopped there a lot and plan to review my last bill carefully. I'd wager they've got that problem fixed...

Lordy I hope

You don't want to buy a fine double four fold tie do ya

On a good note, the ties have only been up for a few hours and the bids so far have already paid for the entire lot including the Charvet tie I kept. Bid baby bid

Hey spence , whats a Bijan go for these days. We used to get them for free from the man himslelf at Xmas time back in the late 80's. (I used to work fo American Express in NYC) Guess I should have stached them instead of re-gifting. Still got well over 100 from Churchills though that are pretty nice,but I think Paisley is out of fashion right now or is it coming back again? Have not worn a suit to work in quite a few years.

Personally I think paisley is a classic...

Bijan could fetch some serious money if in good condition. Way overpriced for what it is, but always ultra-premium...

The IRS has been eyeing eBay for years.

The scope and complexity of trying to track eBay sales is considered to be one of the main things holding them back.
